Mercury
The girl on the corner lights up a smoke
A little fire she holds in her hand
The London skyline is older than me
Still I think if you told me I could understand
The Heathrow express has come and it's gone
The man in the shop looks nothing like you
You could never make this up to me
And I wouldn't want you to
Get down on your knees and start to pray
I'll look like you when I am grey
Beautiful girls don't stay that way
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
I watch the Mercury rise
As I drive away I don't look at the street
I am long dead and and I'm still on my feet
I want a fire to hold in my hand
I wish I could make this up to you
Get down on your knees and start to pray
I'll look like you when I am grey
Beautiful girls don't stay that way
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
A little fire she holds in her hand
The London skyline is older than me
Still I think if you told me I could understand
The Heathrow express has come and it's gone
The man in the shop looks nothing like you
You could never make this up to me
And I wouldn't want you to
Get down on your knees and start to pray
I'll look like you when I am grey
Beautiful girls don't stay that way
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
I watch the Mercury rise
As I drive away I don't look at the street
I am long dead and and I'm still on my feet
I want a fire to hold in my hand
I wish I could make this up to you
Get down on your knees and start to pray
I'll look like you when I am grey
Beautiful girls don't stay that way
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
I watch the Mercury rise and fall
